Re: Fire fighting
How about the idea of establishing a NATO squadron contributed by various nations and pooled at one location.

With incidents like what are happening on the moors near Manchester should the UK look at adding a more robust air support system for dealing with this. Plus why can't we request help from our neighbours as they have these types of aircraft

Re: A-29 tucano
According to Wikipedia the a-29alx has a 3300lb payload capacity so carrying 2 on each wing shouldn't be a issue. These aircraft are becoming popular among many nation's and a few have lgb capability so providing a extra option must be worth a look at

Re: A-29 tucano
The idea of using a couple of ex-raf tucano's was just to prove the platform can use the brimstone missiles not for our use.

A-29 tucano
Is it possible for the A-29 to be armed with brimstone missiles. Could it be possible to adapt a ex-raf tucano to accept these missiles with a view to selling them

Re: Least favourite aircraft?
You know what these type of posts are getting tedious as the title says your least favourite aircraft. But when you post something that people don't like oh dear they throw their rattle out the pram . My post was my opinion I do require or need other people's permission grow up

Re: Least favourite aircraft?
Mine has to be the mig 29. It may provide a exciting airshow peace but from a tactical point of view it is absolutely useless.

Re: Royal International Air Tattoo 2018 Discussion Thread
In some ways it would make sense for him to meet there. My reasoning behind that is because with it being a full military airshow plus the royal family in attendance security will already be everywhere so hosting the president wouldn't create a manpower nightmare.
